Small Packages
Today was my last opportunity to jog to a street, as Woodford is less than a 1/2 mile from my house. My last two streets are Woodward and Wyandotte, and I will definitely be biking to both of them. I plan to do Woodward tomorrow and then wait until Saturday to walk my last street.
Woodford runs from Granger to Webb, where it basically dead-ends into the Horace Mann Elementary School parking lot. As soon as I turned the corner from Webb to head down Woodford, I spotted the cutest little brick house. There is a phrase that “good things come in small packages” and this house had me imagining what it would be like to live in this space. I have watched my share of “Tiny House” shows on HGTV, and there would be a certain appeal to living with less stuff. I think of all the “junk” that I have in my current house, and how freeing it would be to have a simpler life. Perhaps I will be motivated to clean out that catch-all room in the basement this weekend.
At the other end of the street, the house on the corner of Granger also made good use of a tiny space. Nested on the side of the house between the shrubs was a trampoline. Fortunately there was netting around the perimeter, otherwise I could imagine kids bouncing off the trampoline and ending on top of a nearby hedgerow.
